aremaC – New iPhoneography App
This is a unique app that has just hit the app store. It allows you to create real-time effects by stacking and nesting effects with arbitrary masks together! Real-time means you can see the result BEFORE you take the photo. You can even shoot videos with them.
You can read about about the features of this app below. It retails for $0.99/£0.69 and you can pick it up here.
Advanced and Endless Possibilities
✔professional, fully parameterized real-time effects
✔take photos AND record videos with all effects
✔open online library, which everybody can freely extend!
✔6x-zoom
✔full-resolution processing (If you take a photo, it gets automatically rendered in full-resolution in the background and you can instantly continue shooting more photos without having to wait for the rendering to finish! As the high-quality rendering is happening on the CPU, but the real-time view is fully computed on the GPU, there’s absolutely no performance drop while a photo is rendered in background)
✔full EXIF and GPS-data storage
✔edit your photos (yes, this app is perhaps even the greatest photo-editor on the app-store)
★EXCLUSIVE: Another special feature – A BUTTON, which lowers the camera’s exposure for FULLY AUTOMATIC OVER-EXPOSURE PREVENTION! This app is the only one on the app-store which has it.
